Awesome and ordinary haircuts

The secret lies within the experience of the hair designer, talent, and time spent. Of these variables, one separates the $10haircut from the $300 haircut. You might be thinking it is theexperience and talent of the hair designer. This does matter, butin my opinion, the determining factor is the time spent.

It makes sense that a salon that caters to the majority ofpopulation's income level, would make more money charging a lowprice and depend on high volumes of traffic. This means the hairdesigner must work fast, and get as many customers in and out asquickly possible. The hair designer has been trained to cut aspecific way that maximizes the cutting time, and minimizes thetime spent.

I have worked in such a place when I first started in the industry.I was taught to use the same cutting techniques on every customer,without consideration given to the individualistic characteristicsof each person's hair. I have never seen any two people with theexact hair texture, wave pattern, amount of hair, etc. A person'shair is like their fingerprints, and unique from anyone else's.Therefore, using the same cutting techniques on everyone does notand cannot result in an awesome haircut.

After about a year of working in the franchise-quickie haircutsalon, I knew the customers were less than thrilled with thehaircuts. Therefore, despite the goals set by the salon, I decidedto slow down and pay attention to each customer's uniqueness. Thedifference was dramatic. I found that by combing the hair andchecking how the hair was responding to each snip I made, I couldtake the ordinary haircut into an awesome haircut.

Cutting this way took longer of course, but the result was wellworth the effort. I learned that even microscopic snips in theright places is the key to "http://best-shag-haircut-and-styles.blogspot.com/2010/01/michael-jackson-haircuts_28.html"title="awesome haircuts">awesome haircuts. It was not a matter of sticking to a particular cutting method;it was a matter of taking my time. I became a hair artist, and thecustomers loved it. Eventually this led me to work in a moreexclusive hair salon, where I could take my time and charge moremoney. I was surprised to find that a good majority of my customerswere willing to pay three to four times what they were paying inorder to have me cut their hair in the new salon.

The best hair designers take their time. They do not rush, look atthe clock, walk away from their customer in the middle of a haircutto answer a phone, skip the pre-haircut consultation, or let theircustomer leave with wet hair. All of these things add up to a $10haircut. If you have been accustomed to this kind of treatment, youprobably have never had an awesome haircut. You do not have tospend $300 to get an awesome haircut, but you have to find someonewho is willing to take his or her time cutting hair, or cut hairyourself.

I want to encourage you, to learn how to cut your family andfriends hair at home. As you can see from my experience, once youhave the basic knowledge of haircutting (as my videos will teachyou) you have what it takes to create "http://best-shag-haircut-and-styles.blogspot.com/2010/01/michael-jackson-haircuts_28.html"title="awesome haircuts">awesome haircuts. Apply the cutting techniques with taking your time, and you andyour family will never have to go back to getting ordinary haircuts again.
